Agadir Beach for February
If you're holidaying in Agadir in February, it would be a shame not to take advantage of the excellent surf conditions the area is known for. For the novice or pro, trade winds and sheltered spots mean it's the ideal place to ride the waves.
Whilst you're on the coast, why not take advantage of the stunning scenery with a walk along the miles of golden sand that stretch out along the coastline. Agadir's beaches are a beautiful sight and, though it may still be a bit chilly to relax on them in your swim-wear, they're still well worth a visit.
There are miles of beaches along the Atlantic coastline of Morocco by Agadir. The beach by the resort itself extends for over 3km. The promenade, which borders the beach, extends a further 2km. You can bike or walk in the perfect February sunshine. Several locations offer bike rentals including many of the hotels.
The old lighthouse by Cape Ghir is one of the most picturesque beach locations in the area. Walking along the beach in the evening and watching the waves break over the rocks, this historic light house built in 1932 makes a great backdrop if you have a penchant for photography or painting.
Bars and Restaurants
Just about any block in the city contains a variety of places to eat and drink. If you like fish and don't want to pay premium prices, you can get a great meal for as little as $5 at the Fish Market. Choices are plentiful and the fish is always fresh.
If you don't like fish, but also don't want to spend a fortune, try the O Playa. A mixture of Moroccan, American and continental fare, the steaks are excellent. They are open for breakfast, brunch, lunch, and dinner.
Nightlife goes on until the wee hours of the morning. Nightclubs like El Paradiso in the Hotel Argana in the heart of the tourist section of the city by the beach operate from dusk to dawn. If trendy is more your style, then the Flamingo has a large dance floor and plays the latest European music all night long.
